London, December 17. The following is an account of a very
extraordinary Personage.
Near Nenfelin, in Denbighshire, lives Jane Morgan, whose
memory yet serves her to give an account of several things
she hath seen 130 years ago. . . [17 lines describing the
condition of this 130-year-old woman] She is as merry as a
girl of fifteen, and will sing from morning to night, &c.
N.B. She was married forty-five years before she had any
children, and in her 66th year had a daughter; and says her
mother was six feet high, and before she died shrunk to
three feet six inches. . . [7 more lines]
